Passings
On July 6th, Kathleen Woodiwiss passed away. And romance lost one of its pioneers.
Love her or hate her, Woodiwiss is considered a founder of the modern romance genre. She actually *gasp* followed the hero and heroine into the bedroom.
Quite a number of people who talk about romance say, "The first romance book I read was by Kathleen Woodiwiss...and I was hooked!" I've heard that over and over again throughout my time spent discussing and writing romance.
I myself grew up on a steady of Woodiwiss (along with other genres). I can still remember a relative not wanting to lend me one of her books because she didn't feel I was old enough to read it. Luckily Mom did, and she took me to the library to check the book out.
I became hooked on the happily ever after in Woodiwiss and in the books that came after her. It's why I read and write a lot of romance.
Thank you, Mrs. Woodiwiss for sharing your stories with the world and influencing a generation of people. Like me.
